a rear engine VW, and sitting on asquare steel tube stock chassis, it's a very nice looking example of the '53TD. All fiberglass body, nice paint, and of course no rust to deal with, and areliable VW 1600cc engine to push you along on your tool through the windyroads ahead.
Exterior
A view from the side shows the sexy curved linesproduced by the cowled hood front, rear hinged low profile doors, andbeautifully designed rear. On this body are the fender and running boardattachments which start up front just above the shiny bumper, and curve lazilyupward barely touching the chromed headlights that flank the front chromedradiator surround and grille.
Interior
Those short doors swing rearward on their backhinges and reveal brown vinyl crafted with stitched panels and large pouch andscrew fastened to the interior of the doors. A brown tuck and roll bench inshiny vinyl stretches from door to door and is fronted by an eyebrow curvedwood dash. Here, instruments pepper the wood and offer up important runningdata from the engine, as well as speed. A dash mounted mirror is in the middleof the eyebrows, and a wood 3 spoked drilled chrome and wood surroundedsteering wheel presents itself to the driver on the left hand side. Under thefaux cowled hood is more brown carpeted storage space.
Drivetrain
Power comes from the rear in the form of a 1600cc85hp Custom Built VW engine, which is looking nice and clean and wellmaintained. It is fed by a 1-barrel Solex carburetor and has a 4-speedSynchromesh manual transmission on the back. Ferrari badged chromed tips cover4 exhaust outlets, which are stationed just below the rear bumper.
Undercarriage
Very simply put, simple! Framework is square stocksteel tubing and plenty of rust-free steel panels to cover the entire bottom ofthis car. Up front Mustang II suspension (rack and pinion) is installed, and onback independent coil springs are providing the ride. Disc brakes for thefront, and drums for the rear...STOP!
Drive-Ability
Even the throaty exhaust makes you feel like youare behind the wheel of an original, and it drives beautifully. Handles great,has decent acceleration, and shifts smoothly, it has plenty of room behind thewheel for a “normal” sized driver.
